A new kind of retail health clinic has opened in Sacramento that’s geared toward routine services for healthy people willing to shop for the best deal.
WellnessMart MD opened in a strip mall at the high-profile corner of Watt Avenue and Fair Oaks Boulevard in mid-December, slightly ahead of schedule, in order to meet demand for H1N1 flu shots.
Touted as the “Kinko’s of health care,” the place looks more like a copy shop than a doctor’s office, but the menu boards list cash prices for lab tests, vaccinations, physician services and travel medicine.
The place also sells insurance for individuals, families and businesses, mostly high-deductible health savings accounts that cover catastrophes but leave it to patients to shop around for the small stuff.

A Retail Clinic for Healthy People
 Health care would be a great business if it weren’t for all the sick people. Richard McCauley, MD, may have fixed that.
“If you cough, you’re in the wrong place,” he told the Ventura County Star. His store, WellnessMart, sells things like screening tests, checkups and vaccinations. McCauley doesn’t take health insurance, but he’d be glad to sell you a health insurance policy.

Wellness Mart looks nothing like an average doctor's office.
The white and lime green walls, glossy floors and big screen television make it feel more like a Mac store than a stuffy waiting room. There's no crowds or sniffles or even a wait.
